The public school entertainment on
Friday evening last was an eminent sue
cess in every way. Prof. Sullivan, in his
opening remarks. said there were about
s. pupils enrolled and all interested, on
ly he wished parents would take more in
terest in the school and visit it. He said
that JOhsOn's encyclopedia was nearly
paid for, and that the school now had
full set of maps ana charts. The pro-
gram was quite long, and space don't
admit extended notice Every part was
we'll sustained throughout. Mrs. e. NJ.
Hovey's solo was remarkably well rem
dered. She has splendid voice. MY
jeremiah brought down the house G.
C. Siggins showed himself veritable
dude, and Prof. Sullivan had the darby
racket down pat and performed that part
exceedingly well. The court house was
crowded, and the audience highly enjoy
ed the entertainment as whole, and it
is generally considered the best of the
series of school entertainments. They
seem to grow better instead of worse, as
is common. The people show much in
terest in the success of our school, and
we hope it will continue to increase.
